Sorry to hear that - I can understand completely.

The radiators that were replaced under warranty were on 99s and early 2000s 
that developed leaks along one corner (usually the upper right or left). A 
misaligned mount would cause a slight separation and leak. If you had this 
type of leak, I would guess that they would still cover you even just out 
of warranty. However a hole in the back is probably not related to the 
issue. Doesn't hurt to ask though...
